100 years of International Women's Day:
We were surprised at how little publicity International Women's Day had in 2008, and are working towards making a bigger splash in future.
We believe all human beings should have the opportunity to lead a fulfilling and sustainable life, irrespective of gender. Men have as much to gain from feminism as women.

Feminism is not dead

A Times article discusses how lap-dancing clubs, and lads' mags have come to increase under a Labour government whose only criterion seems to be that if people will pay for it, it must be desirable. Anyone who opposes these is easily dismissed as an outdated feminist puritanical party-pooper.

Of course, as well as the article itself, the comments, on both sides of the argument are enlightening. Mainly they enlighten me about just how far feminism has yet to go.
